Jubilee H0nOrS

LONDON, June 22d-At the Children's
Fete given to-day in Hyde Park, the 10000
little ones present arrayed on the great
lawn made pretty picture. The Prince
and Princess of Wales and their sons and
daughters, accompanied by number of
royal guests. visited the Park during the
fete. The children at once freed them
selves from restraint, broke the rope bar
riers and rushed pell-mell toward the Wis
itors and packed themselves in solid groups
around them. All etiquette vanished. The
Princess and Princesses, who were de-
lighted at their position, mixed among the
children with perfect freedom and pleas
ure. The Queen soon arrived, and the
children massed themselves in an orderly
manner on both sides of the road over
which her Maiesty's carriage passed, and
moved with it toward the stand where the
assembled bands were playing the National
anthem, in which the children ali sang
with grand effect.
The Queen reached and ascended the
platform while the music was proceeding.
At its conclusion she presented the me-
mortal cup to the little girl who had been
selected TO represent all the children as
sembled. When the Queen departed the
whole assemblage sang, Rule Britannia
Mr.. Gladstone, Lord Derby and Lord Spen-
Ger were present. A number of aristocrats
lent their assistance to making the fete q
success.
